Acquired from the above by the present owner. Personajes del Cuarto Fambá I belongs to Luis Martínez Pedro's cubist and constructive explorations, in which the human figure is deconstructed into geometric planes and angular rhythms. Stylized bodies are arranged within a fragmented space that suggests an active relationship between figure, object, and working environment. The warm palette-dominated by ochres and blues-reinforces the tension between structure and movement, while the layered planes generate rhythmic depth and spatial complexity. The work reflects the artist's commitment to formal synthesis and pictorial modernity, integrating Cubist principles with a distinctive personal sensibility. A key figure in Cuban modern art, Martínez Pedro is recognized for his contributions to painting, design, and scenography, and for his role in renewing visual language in twentieth-century Cuba.
